  • a transmitter may be a part of the UE 20 and a receiver may be a part of the BS 20.
  • FIG. 2 gives an overview of the E-UTRAN architecture where:
  • Functions agreed to be hosted by the eNB are: Selection of aGW at attachment; Routing towards aGW at RRC activation; Scheduling and transmission of paging messages; Scheduling and transmission of BCCH information; Dynamic allocation of resources to UEs in both uplink and downlink; The configuration and provision of eNB measurements; Radio Bearer Control; Radio Admission Control; Connection Mobility Control in LTE_ACTIVE state.

  • RLC Radio Link Control
  • MAC Medium Access Control sublayers
  • PDCP Packet Data Convergence Protocol sublayer (terminated in aGW on the network side) performs for the user plane functions such as Header Compression, Integrity Protection, Ciphering.
  • FIG. 4 shows the control-plane protocol stack for E-UTRAN. The following working assumptions apply.
  • RLC and MAC sublayers (terminated in eNB on the network side) perform the same functions as for the user plane;
  • RRC Radio Resource Control
  • eNB on the network side performs the functions such as: Broadcast; Paging; RRC connection management; RB control; Mobility functions; UE measurement reporting and control.
  • NAS terminal in aGW on the network side
  • SAE bearer management performs among other things: SAE bearer management; Authentication; Idle mode mobility handling; Paging origination in LTE_IDLE; Security control for the signaling between aGW and UE, and for the user plane.
  • RRC uses the following states:
  • UE specific DRX configured by NAS; Broadcast of system information; Paging; Cell re-selection mobility; The UE shall have been allocated an id which uniquely identifies the UE in a tracking area; No RRC context stored in the eNB.
  • UE has an E-UTRAN-RRC connection; UE has context in E-UTRAN; E-UTRAN knows the cell which the UE belongs to; Network can transmit and/or receive data to/from UE; Network controlled mobility (handover); Neighbour cell measurements; At RLC/MAC level: UE can transmit and/or receive data to/from network; UE also reports channel quality information and feedback information to eNB.
  • the network signals UE specific paging DRX (Discontinuous Reception) cycle.
  • UE monitors a paging at a specific paging occasion of every UE specific paging DRX cycle.
  • the paging occasion is a time interval where a paging is transmitted.
  • UE has its own paging occasion.
  • a paging message is transmitted over all cells belonging to the same tracking area. If UE moves from a tracking area to another tracking area, UE will send a tracking area update message to the network to update its location.
  • a physical channel transfers signaling and data between UE L1 and eNB L1. As shown in FIG. 5 , the physical channel transfers them with a radio resource which consists of one or more sub-carriers in frequency and one more symbols in time. 6 or 7 symbols constitute one sub-frame which is 0.5 ms in length. The particular symbol(s) of the sub-frame, e.g. the first symbol of the sub-frame, can be used for the PDCCH (Physical Downlink Control Channel). PDCCH channel carries L1 signaling.
  • a transport channel transfers signaling and data between L1 and MAC layers.
  • a physical channel is mapped to a transport channel.
  • Downlink transport channel types are:
  • Uplink transport channel types are:
  • the MAC sublayer provides data transfer services on logical channels.
  • a set of logical channel types is defined for different kinds of data transfer services as offered by MAC.
  • Each logical channel type is defined by what type of information is transferred.
  • a general classification of logical channels is into two groups:
  • Control channels are used for transfer of control plane information only.
  • the control channels offered by MAC are:
  • a point-to-multipoint downlink channel used for transmitting MBMS control information from the network to the UE.
  • a point-to-point bi-directional channel that transmits dedicated control information between a UE and the network. Used by UEs having an RRC connection.
  • Traffic channels are used for the transfer of user plane information only.
  • the traffic channels offered by MAC are:
  • a Dedicated Traffic Channel is a point-to-point channel, dedicated to one UE, for the transfer of user information.
  • a DTCH can exist in both uplink and downlink.
  • a point-to-multipoint downlink channel for transmitting traffic data from the network to the UE.
  • this single carrier can take the form of one frequency, one time slot, one code, any combination thereof, or other.
  • Carrier aggregation would thus involve transporting information, such as useful information and/or control information, over a plurality of carriers with respect to a given UE. It would thus enhance the conventional carrier usage and be adapted to the multiple access type of the considered radio communication system.
  • LTE-Advanced LTE Release 8
  • Some aspects of carrier aggregation are disclosed for example in 3GPP TR 36.814 V0.4.1, 3rd Generation Partnership Project; Technical Specification Group Radio Access Network; Further Advancements for E-UTRA Physical Layer Aspects (Release 9) released in February 2009 (see section 5 in particular).
  • LTE-Advanced allows having two or more carriers, so-called component carriers (CCs), aggregated in order to support wider transmission bandwidths e.g. up to 100MHz and for spectrum aggregation.
  • component carriers CCs
  • a terminal may simultaneously receive or transmit on one or multiple component carriers depending on its capabilities:
  • a carrier may be defined by a bandwidth and a center frequency. If five carriers are assigned as granularity of carrier unit having a 5 MHz bandwidth, carrier aggregation may lead to a bandwidth of a maximum of 20 MHz.
  • Contiguous spectrum aggregation and/or non-contiguous spectrum aggregation may take place.
  • the contiguous spectrum aggregation uses contiguous carriers and the non-contiguous spectrum aggregation uses discontiguous carriers.
  • the number of aggregated carriers may be different in uplink and downlink. When the number of downlink carriers and that of uplink carriers are equal, it is called a symmetric aggregation, and when the numbers are different, it is called an asymmetric aggregation.
  • the size (i.e., the bandwidth) of multiple carriers may vary. For example, when five carriers are used to configure a 70 MHz band, they may be configured as 5MHz carrier (carrier #0) + 20MHz carrier (carrier #1) + 20MHz carrier (carrier #2) + 20MHz carrier (carrier #3) + 5MHz carrier (carrier #4).
  • FIG. 6 illustrates an example of a protocol structure for supporting multiple carriers.
  • a common medium access control (MAC) entity 210 manages a physical (PHY) layer 220 which uses a plurality of carriers.
  • a MAC management message transmitted by a particular carrier may be applied to other carriers.
  • the PHY layer 220 may operate e.g. in a TDD (Time Division Duplex) and/or FDD (Frequency Division Duplex) scheme.
  • TDD Time Division Duplex
  • FDD Frequency Division Duplex
  • a physical downlink control channel may inform the UE about the resource allocation of paging channel (PCH) and downlink shared channel (DL-SCH), and hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) information related to DL-SCH.
  • the PDCCH may carry the uplink scheduling grant which informs the UE about resource allocation of uplink transmission.
  • a physical control format indicator channel (PCFICH) informs the UE about the number of OFDM symbols used for the PDCCHs and is transmitted in every subframe.
  • a physical Hybrid ARQ Indicator Channel carries HARQ ACK/NAK signals in response to uplink transmissions.
  • a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) carries uplink control information such as HARQ AC/NAK in response to downlink transmission, scheduling request and channel quality indicator (CQI).
  • a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) carries uplink shared channel (UL-SCH).
  • FIG. 7 illustrates an example of a frame structure for operating multiple carriers.
  • a radio frame includes 10 subframes.
  • Each carrier may have its own control channel, i.e. PDCCH.
  • Some carriers may have only a portion of the SFH.
  • Multiple carriers may be or may not be contiguous to each other.
  • a UE may support one or more carriers according to its capability.
  • Carriers may be divided into a primary carrier (PCC), also called a serving carrier in the following, and a secondary carrier depending on whether they are activated.
  • PCC primary carrier
  • the primary carrier refers to a carrier that is constantly activated
  • the secondary carrier refers to a carrier that is activated or deactivated according to particular conditions.
  • Activation means that transmission or reception of traffic data is performed or traffic data is ready for its transmission or reception.
  • Deactivation means that transmission or reception of traffic data is not permitted. In the deactivation, measurement is made or minimum information can be transmitted or received.
  • the UE uses only a single primary carrier or one or more secondary carriers along with the primary carrier.
  • a given UE may be able to receive or transmit control information on one component carrier only at a time. So, if the UE and the radiocommunication system do not use the same component carrier for control information reception / transmission, at least part of the control information may be lost.
  • a terminal may receive a handover command from a serving cell and then move to a target cell based on the received handover command.
  • the terminal may receive the handover command including multiple CCs as a target. In this case, the terminal cannot know on which target CC it will receive control information such as paging. If the CC where the terminal receives paging is different from the CC where the network sends paging for the terminal, the terminal may lose signaling or data from the network.
  • CC component carriers
  • the UE may be explicitly assigned the primary carrier and/or the second carriers by the BS.
  • the transmission of that information generates signaling and/or overhead.
  • a paper by CATT, "Handover for Carrier Aggregation", 3GPP DRAFT, R2-093722, 23 June 2009 describes how the serving carrier (carrier 1) is being explicitly indicated within the received list of multiple carriers to the UE by the eNB.
  • the invention proposes a method of managing carrier aggregation in a radiocommunication system.
  • the method comprises the following steps according to appended claim 1 carried out by a user equipment:
  • the ordered list constitutes an implicit indication of the carrier to be selected as a serving carrier by the user equipment. This selection avoids explicit indication which would introduce signaling and/or overhead.
  • the invention also proposes a user equipment arranged for managing carrier aggregation in cooperation with a radiocommunication system according to the appended claim 4.
  • a user equipment receives a list of multiple carriers in a determined order and selects one carrier from the list of multiple carriers as a serving carrier, based on a position of said carrier in the list of multiple carriers.
  • serving carrier may be a primary component carrier (PCC) as defined above.
  • a UE 3 is first in communication with a source BS 1, via one carrier or several carriers (if carrier aggregation takes place with the source BS 1) among the carriers 1, 2,..., N (reference 4).
  • the UE 3 When a handover must take place for the UE 3 from the source BS 1 to the target BS 2, the UE 3 receives a handover command message 6 from the source BS 1 as is conventional. This handover command message 6 is sent over one or several carriers 4.
  • the handover command message 6 includes a list of multiple carriers which are target aggregated carriers relating to the target BS 2 to take over the communication.
  • This list thus comprises an indication for the carriers 1', 2',..., M' (reference 5) in a determined order, that is carrier 1', then carrier 2',..., and then carrier M'.
  • the carrier indication may take any possible form, such as a number of each carrier (1', 2',..., M'), a characteristic of each carrier (an indication of a frequency, a time slot, a code, a combination thereof, etc.), or other. In any case, the information provided in the list should be sufficient to identify each carrier.
  • the list of multiple carriers is sent by the source BS 1 and received by the UE 3 over a carrier which is not included in the list. Also, although the list is sent here by a BS, it may be sent by another entity in the radiocommunication system having an appropriate transmission unit therefor.
  • the handover command message 6 does not include an explicit designation of a carrier that could be used for the UE 3 as a serving carrier, that is, with respect to LTE-A carrier aggregation, a primary carrier (PCC) as defined above.
  • PCC primary carrier
  • the UE 3 On receiving the list of carriers 1', 2',..., M', the UE 3 selects one of those carriers as a serving carrier. This selection is based on a position of said carrier in the list of multiple carriers. For example, the UE 3 may select the carrier in first position in the received list, that is the carrier 1' in the present example.
  • the carrier in position p in the received list where p is a determined integer between 1' and M', may be selected.
  • the integer p may be the same for each selection, or it may vary from one selection to the following one.
  • p may follow a cycle, such as 1', then 2',..., and then M', or any other possibility.
  • the list is built accordingly by the source BS 1 or any other entity in the radiocommunication system having an appropriate unit therefor.
  • the list is built with the knowledge that the carrier in first (or other) position in the list will be selected by the UE 3. So, if the radiocommunication system wishes that the carrier 1' be used by the UE 3 as a serving carrier, it will place it in first position in the list sent within the handover command message 6.
  • the same mechanism can take place in a context which does not involve a handover.
  • the BS 1 may send the list of multiple (aggregated) carriers 1, 2,..., N, so that the UE 3 may select one of those carriers as a serving carrier based on its position in the list. This may occur for example after a reconfiguration takes place in the BS 1 and/or in the UE 3, after a communication involving the UE 3 starts, or in any other suitable circumstances.
  • the carrier selected as a serving carrier may be one of the carriers via which the list of multiple carriers was received by the UE 3.
  • All or some of the carriers indicated in the list may be downlink carriers, i.e. carriers for carrying information sent from the radiocommunication system to the UE.
  • all or some of the carriers indicated in the list may be uplink carriers, i.e. carriers for carrying information sent from the UE to the radiocommunication system.
  • the UE 3 may receive (in case of a downlink carrier) or transmit (in case of an uplink carrier) control information on said selected carrier before receiving or transmitting control information on the other carriers in the list.
  • the UE 3 and the radiocommunication system can use the same component carrier, that is the selected serving carrier (PCC), for control information reception / transmission.
  • PCC serving carrier
  • control information has been properly received / transmitted on the selected serving carrier (PCC)
  • some other control information may be received / transmitted on other listed carriers later on.
  • the control information received by the UE 3 on the selected carrier before receiving on the other listed carriers may include system information (SI).
  • SI system information
  • control information received by the UE 3 on the selected carrier before receiving on the other listed carriers may be included in a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH).
  • PDCH physical downlink control channel
  • control information received by the UE 3 on the selected carrier before receiving on the other listed carriers may include paging.
  • the risk of missing a call may thus be considerably reduced if not eliminated.
  • the control information transmitted by the UE 3 on the selected carrier before transmitting on the other listed carriers may include a handover complete message 18.
  • the risk that a handover procedure cannot be achieved due to the handover complete message not being received by the radiocommunication system may thus be considerably reduced if not eliminated. This is because the radiocommunication system waits for the handover complete message precisely on the selected serving carrier.
  • control information transmitted or received first on the serving carrier may be envisaged instead or in addition to the examples above, as will appear to one skilled in the art.
  • FIG. 9 shows a non-limiting example of how to select the serving downlink carrier (DL CC) with respect to a given UE, according to an embodiment of the invention involving a handover.
  • DL CC serving downlink carrier
  • the handover (HO) command message includes the list of target aggregated DL CCs (step 7) and if no explicit indication of a target serving DL CC was received before or within the HO command message (step 8, 'No'),
  • FIG. 10 shows a non-limiting example of how to select the serving uplink carrier (UL CC) with respect to a given UE, according to an embodiment of the invention involving a handover.
  • UL CC serving uplink carrier
  • the indicated UL CC is selected as the serving UL CC (step 16) and the UE can transmit the HO complete message on said indicated target serving UL CC.
